Connecting bone and sinew.
Thinking of me. Thinking of them.
I'm sure I would've been your friend
in second or fifth grade,
but when (just past half-forty!) I met you,
I didn't trust our hum and spark.
I almost grieve the time lost,
sometimes, between you and you,
but would walk across broken glass
for him, and it wasn't bad as that.
Nor was it good as this: you, my rock
of the anchoring, not sinking, variety.
The way your eyes convey forever.
This lovely! Happy birthday to your husband.
